WOW! YANKEE fans. What a great start to the 2013 season by this WIN METHOD built team. Stellar team play from guys like Hafner, Youkilis, Overbay, Nix, Nunez, Cervelli, Warren, etal. With injuries to key players, Jeter, Granderson, Teixeira, Pineda, we survive and fight on. Add in the injuries to Cervelli and Youkilis, and you wind up with one heck of amazing performance by this team so far this 2013 season. 16-10 win-loss record to end the first month of the season. A season that most prognosticators and talking heads were predicating only the worst case scenario for this years YANKEE team. The naysayers, the voices of gloom and doom have been silenced. Now their tired refrain is 'it can't go on'. But that is why we post here on the WIN METHOD blog. We post truth and wisdom, we support our team, and try to be positive. You guys and gals are WIN METHOD, you are the best, and you have made this site the biggest and best in baseball.
Coming down the road, we will have players returning to the lineup and a few guys who are here now will have to be dropped. We have so much talent on the horizon the YANKEES will continue their run of superiority and dominance unrivaled during the past two decades. There is only one player who we do not need back, and much of the teams success so far this year may have much to do with him not being here. We all know who we don't want back but may be forced to take back. No more Afraud, please.
How about Mariano Rivera. The pitching machine is as great as ever and that is saying something since he is the greatest relief pitcher in the history of baseball.
I see, as many of you have also seen, the stat fraud postings have been miniscule here lately. They have been beaten down with truth, wisdom, and logic. For newer posters here, stat frauds are the people who manufacture and create convoluted invalid formulas to try to evaluate players and then try to tell the world which players are best. Only the basic baseball stats are legitimate, runs, hits, batting average, etc. When you see or hear War, AWAR, ZR, replacement value and other garbage, ignore them and always remember that only wins and winning determine the best of the best.
If anyone has any questions, post them on this blog, and you will be answered by any and many of the brilliant knowledgeable baseball fans here. Post your opinions and views. Naysayers, post also, call us names if you wish, but foul language will always be deleted. We ban no one and love to hear from all sides. Even the stat frauds, who have no game and no sense.
The injured will slowly return and the playoffs are on the horizon. This team is what the WIN METHOD is all about. Rising to the occasion and excelling in the face of adversity.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 1495 Newer› Newest»Yankees win it 4-2. 5-1 road trip. Kuroda win, Robertson hold, Mo 15th save.
Yankees win 4-2.
Great win, great road trip, great team. WIN METHOD.
On to Cleveland for a old fashioned double- header tomorrow. Niether Robertson nor Mo were hard used today so we could be in pretty good shape for tomorrow being how deep and good our pen is.
Five straight wins with 2 games in Cleveland tomorrow.
From my sources. Phelps and Nuno to get starts tomorrow.
Is it to much to ask to sweep todays double header.
WIN METHOD called it last night. Nuno and Phelps slated to start todays games.
I can live with a split of todays games Quay, but a sweep would be fantastic.
It has been said, and now I will say it again.....WIN METHOD rules the baseball world.
Youkilis and Granderson can't be far off, any day now.
The Yankees have so many chips. Loaded from the bottom up.
Two games starting in on hour. Phelps in game one. Get 'em. Another win guys.
The worst of kinds of losses. Yanks go down 1-0 in first game of double header on a first inning home run. Phelps was great, Masterson was greater.
Yanks lose game one 1-0.
Yanks up 1-0 after 2 in game 2.
Yankees and Nuno hold 1-0 lead after five.
Adam warren pitches a 1,2,3 6th and Yankees cling to a 1-0 lead after 6. Nuno with an excellent five innings.
Yanks blow it open with 6 in the 7th for a 7-0 lead.
Yanks earn a split with six runs in the seventh and take 7-0 lead.
Nuno will earn the win.
The baby corp of WIN METHOD draft picks show the way. The future is glowing with diamonds in the ruff.
Game over Yanks win it 7-0. Nuno with 5 scoreless innings and Warren with 4 scoreless innings for the shutout. Split of the double header.
6-2 final of the road trip including the Indian rain out make up games. Solid baseball. The two game we lost were 1-0 and 2-0.
The Yankees rule. Especialy without afraud around.
I am blessed to be part of the WIN METHOD.
We now have a short home stand. First in the Mariners and queen felix.
This teams just gets deeper and deeper and better and better.
Quay, it is fans such as you who make the WIN METHOD the best in the world. Intelligent fans who know only wins and winning determine the best of the best.
CC goes against Hernandez in tonights game. Or should I say 'queen felix'.
If CC brings his game face and the team can score a few runs, Hernandez will be taken down.
No letups at home Take each series,
This Yankee lineup will be a little different from what Hernandez has pitched against in the past.
The WIN METHOD and the Yankee team have made fools of the skeptics, the stat frauds, the talking heads, and all non-believers.
Keep winning and march to the playoffs.
CC don't be outshined by the young arms. Shut them out and go hame with a win.
CC, show the queen sho's king.
Lets go Yankees, lets go.
Take game one. Lets go Yankees.
Lets get ready for some baseball WIN METHOD style.
Score first and score early.
M's lead 1-0 after 3 on unearned run. Yanks have had chance but have not delivered when it counts.
Yanks down 1-0 after 5.
Yanks down 3-1 after 6 as CC gives up 2 run HR to Ibanez.
The Yankees score 3 in the bottom of the 7th to take a 4-3 lead.
Yanks up 4-3 after 7.

Mo saves it and closes it with a 1,2,3 9th.
Yankees win 4-3 and take game one and beat the queen.
Game over, Yanks win 4-3. Yes, another WIN METHOD win.
Granderson is back and played entire game tonight in left field.
What a nice win, driving Hernandez from the game after only six innings.
Hughes starts tomorrow to try to take the series.
Very nice come from behind win. Theee Yankeeeeeeees Winnnn.
Hughes was a little off last outing. Now is the time to prove his worth with a bounce back great game and a win.
A gritty come from behind win. I love it.
Just keep winning by playing team WIN METHOD baseball. To heck with meaningless individual stats.
Take the series tonight and go for the sweep tomorrow.
The glory of the WIN METHOD stands above anything else on just this season alone.
My word is that Teixeira will be playing MLB by the end of May.
WIN METHOD..We will then just get deeper and deeper as a team. More options and more flexibility.
Keep the line moving Phil.
Keep it going Yankees. WINS are all that matters.
Baseball time. Go Yankees.
Hughes crashes and burns big time. Goes 2/3 inning allowing 7, yes 7 runs. This should test our metal.
Wells solo blast cut M's lead to 7-1 after 2.
What a horrid outing from Hughes. What's up?
Yanks down 9-2 after 5.
Yanks down 12-2 after 6. Lets put this puppy to bed.
Look at the bright side. It's a WIN METHOD loss. Lose by a lot and give the stat frauds there blank ammunition.
12-2 after 7. Montgomery eating innings for the team.
Pettitte goes today in rubber game to see who win the series.
Have to give credit to the kid Marshall. He ate up innings to save the pen and shortstop Gonzalez got the last out from the mound. If a loss is good 12-2 is the way to go.
If Andy throws like last outing we will be fine tonight.
My observation. Without Afraud at third, whoever plays third, plays it better than Afraud. Conversely without Jeter at short, does not play it as well as Jeter defensively.
Get on the win road Andy.
Win tonite, win the series.
Granderson got his first hit last night. We are getting deeper and deeper slowly but surely.
Make up for last night. the M's scored all in one game and will lose 2 of the 3.
Lets go Yankees.
Get the job done Andy. First HR for Grandyman tonight?
1-1 after 3.
Yanks down 2=1 after 4. Pettitte grinding.
Yanks down 3-1 after 6. Pettitte leaves in 5th with injury. Back again?
Yanks get one in the seventh, but trail 3-2.
Stewart leaves game with injury.
Yanks fail to score in 8th. One more chance to come from behind,
Yanks trial 3-2 after 8.
Yanks lose 3-2.
We had our chances but could not deliver when it mattered most. Lose 3-2.
Yanks lose game, lose series, lose Pettitte, lose Stewart. Not a good day.
We beat Hernandez and then lose two games. Baseball is a funny game and a long telling season.
Need to recover this weekend and take this series and stop the slide.
Kuroda goes tonight. He has been our most consistent starter so far this season.
Sadly, we have to win this series just to be .500 on this short home stand.
It looks like Romaine will get a big time shot with Stewart down.
We need the win team. Score some runs because Hiroki will keep us alive.
Rebound this weekend. Take it to them.
Do it again Hiroki. Get the win.
Kuroda with another gem thru 7/ Yanks lead 2-0 batting in the 7th.
5-0 Yanks after 7. We have game one.
Kuroda has bee amazing. Shutout through eight and never really in trouble.
The kids are coming along fine. What a classy team.
Phelps today to keep us on track.
Yanks up 5-1 after 5.
Cano's 2 HR's and 5 RBI's account for all Yankee runs.
Final, Yankees win it 7-2. Now for the sweep tomorrow with CC on the mound.
Another stellar day for Phelps. Adams at third should mean the ousting of Afraud forever.
If you are going to tomorrows game, bring a broom.
We have some rain. Lets get the game in and another series sweep.
No let ups CC. Get us the win and sweep.
Sad to say, the rain did not go away, but we will play another day.
Instead of sweeping a 3 game series we sweep a 2 game series. CC gets to open the Oriole series now.
Rainouts aren't good when you are winning.
Take down the O's in game one.
On to Baltimore for three games. We know what is expected.
CC in game one. Hopefully the extra day off and the break in routine doesn't hurt his chances.
We still may have to play around raindrops in Baltimore.
We just need to follow the desired scenario. Win game one and go from there.
Bring it CC and the O's with all 0's.
Freddy Garcia to throw batting practice.
2-1 Yanks after 3.
CC sloppy. 2-2 after five.
Each time the Yanks give CC a run he gives it right back. In the 7th he gives more back and Yanks down 4-3 after 7. CC not pitching like an ace.
Yanks down 4-3 after 7.
Hafner HR in 9th ties it 4-4. Robertson in to pitch the 9th.
Extra innings. 4-4 after 9.
4-4 after 9.
Yankees with 2 in the 10th take 6-4 lead. Mo coming in for the save.
Rivera 1,2,3 10th. Yanks win it 6-4.
Final 6-4 in 10. Theeeee Yankeeeeees Win.
It wasn't easy, but it was a win.
Good start to the series. Hughes goes in tomorrows game. We will see what he has on tap for us.
Now if Hughes can pitch like he really can. Hope he didn't lose confidence after last putrid start.
It's scary the way we win some of our games. Destiny?
If Hughes can get back on track it would be a nice boost to a solid staff.
CC has been grinding. He has yet to show consistent dominance this season.
Don't be surprised if CC is pacing himself for a grand year after all is said and done.
Hughes' arm should be well rested for tonight. He could be hitting 94+ consistently. But pitching is much more the fast balls.
OK Phil. You are on the hot seat. Perform.
Take this series tonight. No let-uos guys.
Do it Hughes. Muffle your attackers.
1-1 after 3.
1-1 after 3.
Even 2-2 after five.

2-2 after 8.
Extra innings again. 2-2 after 9.
Yankees lose it 3-2.
Nuno gives up lead off HR in 10th. Yanks go down 3-2.
Tough 3-2 extra inning loss.
Tough loss yesterday. Rubber game today. Kuroda for the good guys.
No team wins them all. We are playing great baseball. Win today and we move on with another series win.
I agree, win tonight and move on to Tampa after a well deserved off day.
Get the series tonight team.
Kuroda has bee our mainstay so far. Do it again Hiroki.
Hughes gets little support again, but that is part of the game. He left with a no decision thus keeping his team in the game and giving them a good chance to win.
Go Yankees
Last nights loss was the first the Yankees suffered after scoring first in a game. They won 19 straight scoring first games and they were the last team in MLB to lose a scoring first game.
Lets go Yankees. Take the series.
The Yankees will need a comeback to win tonight as Kuroda gives up 3 first inning runs. 3-0 O's after one.
Yanks now need a bigger comeback. Down 6-1 after 3.
Yanks down 6-2 after 7. Time to make hay or lose the series.
Yankees lose 6-3.
Kuroda leaves game with bruised right calf.
Yanks go down 6-3. Lose series. On to Tampa.
Off day. Time to recoup.
Plain and simple, the O's out-pitched us.
If we take 2 of 3 in Tampa we will be .500 on this road trip.
We can root for our rivals to lose on our off days.
Good call. Our two closest pursuers both lose tonight.
Nice. A day off an gain a 1/2 game on your two closest rivals. now to win tonight.
Back to baseball. Enjoy the holiday weekend fans.
Phelps gets tonights start.
We haven't lost three straight games all season. Tonight is a must win if we continue that record.
It would help our starters if the lineup scored a few more runs.
Take game one. Just like a first pitch strike or a first batter out each inning, it makes a difference.
Lets go Yankees. Keep up the winning.
Take game one, go Yankees.
Yanks score 3 in 2nd for a 3-0 lead after 2.
Gardner 2 run blast puts Yankees up 5-0 after 4.

Yanks up 9-4 after 8. Granderson HBP, broken left pinky. DL?
Game over, Yankees win 9-4. Granderson out with broken finger. Phelps hit in pitching forearm on comebacker in 8th.
Theeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Win. 9-4 final.
hope Phelps is OK.
We got game one. this afternoon the Yankees Nuno making his second MLB start goes against the Rays Moore who is 8-0 so far this season.
A win today would be really big.
No one wins all the time and neither will the Rays Moore. Today could be the day.
A win today would be a giant feather fin the Yankee cap.
It looks like Phelps got away lucky. Granderson out a month.
Yanks score in the 1st on Gardner double and Hafner single for 1-0 lead.
Yankees lead 1-0 after one.
Still 1-0 Yanks after 3.
Rays with 1 in the 5th tie game 1-1.
